What Cara Nikolaus doesn't like about Pintoh:
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. We used a Scoopon voucher for $50 worth of food for only $25. The entrees we ordered, betel prawn and scallops, were disappointing in terms of portion size - one prawn and one scallop on a slice of cucumber. Despite this, the Pad Thai and barramundi green curry fish we had for main courses were delicious and had reasonable portions. Overall, the food was great but I wouldn'... View all feedback.
New place on Bourke St serving up Lao style cuisineThe flavours are strong and the dishes are tasty.
The $15 lunch specials are good. You get spring rolls with most dishes. Will be back for dinner, even if it is a bit pricier.
Zero rapport/contact with our waiter. Not even a greeting, or a voice. Understandably his English may not have been perfect, but given this is a customer service profession, it is unacceptable from wait staff. When ordering, I was told 4 of the 6 items from the Entrees section were unavailable. Unacceptable for a Friday night. Place was empty too, and I can see why, giiven the Thai competition some 2 doors down had a queue out the door. Won't be returning here. The food itself was very average,
Conveniently located... tick! ✅ Trams, Parliament station, shopping.No fuss venue... tick! ✅ It's not one of those pretentious white linen places where the waitstaff scowl at you for mis-aligning the cutlery.Friendly staff... tick! ✅ See above.Shared plates amongst friends who want to focus on catching up... tick! ✅ Delicious food... tick! ✅ We can't rave enough about the soft pillowy salted egg yolk scallops, the soft shell crab, the papaya salad and the ribs. Sharing the braised beef noodles was a little challenging - so delicious you wanted it all but being in polite company meant you "shouldn't" have the last lot... well, someone's gotta take one for the team! If you're looking for a sinful bar-snack type appetiser, try the chicken skin with its one of a type chilli mayo (go easy the first bite if you're sensitive to chilli heat)Any regrets?... tick! ✅ Well the thing about sitting down to an early dinner is not being able to see what everyone else is having (for inspiration, of course)... and as we were filing out, saw that the pad Thai was very popular... so whilst I can't give a review of that dish, safe to say that I'll be back for it!
